Verdict

NEZWAAH looks a tough nut to crack here at the weights and could well make the long journey from Newmarket worthwhile, given that she already holds a verdict over the consistent More Mischief. She in turn has to reverse last year’s form with year’s winner Maleficent Queen who may well be better suited by longer trips these days. The other three in the field would have to improve a fair bit to win this with perhaps Pure Artbeing the one who has the most chance of doing that.
  1. Nezwaah
  2. More Mischief
  3. Maleficent Queen
